How this service works
UK grid carbon intensity in gCO2/kWh with generation mix, the cleanest and dirtiest half hour in the next 24 hours and optional postcode region
Output
A JSON object containing: national carbon intensity with forecast and actual gCO2/kWh values and an index band (very low to very high); generation mix as percentages across gas, coal, wind, hydro, solar, biomass, imports, nuclear, and other; a next_24h summary identifying the cleanest and dirtiest half-hour windows; an optional region object if a postcode was supplied; and metadata fields for data source and any caveats.
Example use cases
Smart EV charging time optimizer
“I want to charge my electric car tonight — when is the cleanest, lowest-carbon half-hour window on the UK grid in the next 24 hours, and what's the current carbon intensity right now?”
Regional carbon intensity for home automation
“What's the carbon intensity of the electricity grid right now for the SW1A postcode area, and what percentage is coming from wind versus gas?”
Sustainability dashboard data feed
“Pull the latest UK grid carbon intensity in gCO2/kWh with the full generation mix — how much is nuclear, solar, wind, coal, and imports — so I can update our sustainability dashboard.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://saylorinnovations.com/api/electricity/uk/carbon?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need live or near-term forecast UK electricity carbon intensity data with generation mix detail, especially when you want the optimal low-carbon time window in the next 24 hours or need regional granularity by postcode. Prefer it over generic energy APIs when the use case is specifically UK grid carbon awareness, EV charging scheduling, demand-shifting automation, or sustainability reporting.
Side effects
- Invalid or unrecognised UK postcode returns null region or an error
- Carbon Intensity API upstream outage results in stale or unavailable data
- Postcode outside GB coverage (e.g. Northern Ireland) may return national figure only
- Network timeout or 402 payment failure if USDC micropayment is not properly handled
